How To Catch An Angel?

The author of this wonderful idea to make this angel in a glass bowl for many years,
a master class to finish his hands came just now. The author thinks that this kind of information
which does not lose its value over time. Let's take a look at the process of invention
and read instructions. Further author's words:

First you need to make a wire man with a head-bead. Do not forget to ring halo. For my ball (6 cm), I made a man a length of about 3,5 cm Next, head, hands and legs should be covered nesolkimi layers of acrylic solid color (white lead + Security + red).

For apparel needs crepe paper strip about 15-17cm long and 3-3,5 cm in width. One edge of it is painted with gold acrylic with a brush. When it is dry, gently nanoshu at its end paper PVA glue and dipped in a tiny gold sequins. Of finished paper strips cut about 1,5-2cm for each sleeve, and about 9-12cm for the dress. The same is covered with glitter halo.

Defines the length of the sleeves, attaching a wire leg, cut off excess. Then glue along the sleeves. When dry, they should prisborit, put on a foot man, miss the mark at the base with glue and prizhmat, while the glue did not grab (this may be done more easily with tweezers).

Just otpredelyaetsya necessary length dress, cut off excess, then it is necessary to glue the strip into a ring as well as sleeves. Make two cuts, where will the sleeves (pictured clear where these places are located). Harvesting of dresses worn on the figure, but sticking it first must only Metakhim cuts - where the foot.

Here's how it will look like:

When dry, glue a small amount of dress attached to a calf, and the need to form small folds. In these folds to hide the main seam and lay them along the branches, if there are traces of cuts and edits. For all this to keep, tightly bandage wire until the glue.

I take off the wire. If somewhere there will be pieces of glue stick, etc., they can pay with a razor or sharp knife. Bandage angel thread / fishing line - it is needed to attach the wings and the hanging of an angel in the ball. The ends of the threads should be 15-20cm in length, the better to work with them.

Head-to-bead covered with large gold sequins.

On a piece of paper folded in half painted wings, then attach them to the angel, we must clarify the contours and draw a clean copy.

Top notes with the finished picture put organza wings. Wire about 10 cm in length should be folded in half and sdelayt a small loop in the middle. Then spread it by following the outer contour of the wings, eye must be in the middle, as shown in the photo.

Wire on the outer edge of the picture is pasted with glue "Moment of Crystal ". Then apply a white outline drawing, you can also sprinkle it with glitter - first one and then the other tissues. When everything is dry, you can cut the wings along the contour of paint.

Wings flash a thread, tied with an angel, through a wire loop, and the need to make a few knots and secure them with glue. Then cut one end of the thread. To make sure before sewing the wings can drop of glue on the connection.

Finished sewn wings:

Of the dense foil cut out a quarter of a circle (about 0.8 cm in radius). With the help of toothpicks twisted billet so that poluchitlsya even narrower cone. Since I have not had a gold foil, I additionally covered her golden potal, but this is the cost of production)))

Horn attached to the legs of the angel small droplets of super-glue or any other. Everything is ready.

You can already enjoy the result :-)

Now, the most terrible and the main point: the elegant clothing angel must lay down, roll tube wings, legs with a pipe pick up and in a position to stuff the poor winged creature in a ball.

Using tweezers wings carefully deployed in a normal position

Toothpicks or all of the same forceps to reveal the hem, to improve other trifles. After this it is useful to turn over the ball and shake the excess glitter.

Now we can put on a ball cap. I do not like the usual hats Christmas balls, because attaching them up too much space, which in this case to anything. So I used the hat for the beads (first completely flattened it, and then give the necessary form), which stuck to the ball itself, previously demonstrated through her pin (pin) of gold wire. From this pin to make a loop for hanging the ball, and around its base to consolidate nesolkimi nodes thread that fixes the angel at the correct height.

Now everything is ready :-)
